Climate Change 2 - its also the submarine volcanoes

db is now covering up his ignorance by being a pedantic troll. but it won't work because being pedantic does not change the fact he was an idiot.

for the intent of this conversation and the way I used the word... the word essentially means: the question was same but with different words.

however... folderol was good word.
the only folderol I employed was that I was verbose.
"essentially" was superfluous.

Key word being "essentially", i.e., not the same.

Don't try that slick lawyerly folderol on me, sonny.

I suppose we can guess just how tight your grasp is of the law . . .

I can see you have refined your understanding, Ricter.

Thereby, you must now agree that CO2 does indeed block incoming IR and thereby prevent some warming.

Lol. CO2 "blocks" incoming IR by absorbing it, i.e. it does not prevent warming, it adds to warming.

why would you misrepresent the science by leaving out the next step?

after absorbing it - it then emits it. some of it going back into space.

That energy emission occurs in basically three directions: up, down, or sideways. In two of those three cases the energy emitted from a molecule reenergizes a neighboring molecule, i.e. a blanket effect.

NYT headline from 1 year ago, someone should have told boston we witnessed the end of snow.

 

[Ricter]

Doesn't need to be particularly cold to snow.
